A PowerPoint for SDV 107 at J. Sargeant Reynolds

1. Technology in Education Myths New ways for doing the same old thing

2. Myth #1 Using technology involves the student in the learning process. Students using technology become active participants in the learning process instead of passive listeners .

3. Technology doesn’t do this. Good teaching does this. Technology often makes this easier to do and leverages student interests but ask anyone who’s had to sit through a two hour Powerpoint if the technology engaged them in the learning process.
